It was Greene’s first 100-yard game since Oct. 3 of last year against the Bills and the fifth of his career, including the postseason.

“It doesn’t mean anything,” Greene said of the 100-yard mark. “I just want the [wins].”

Early on, Greene was a force. LaDainian Tomlinson, facing his former team, started the game, but Greene began to get the ball on the Jets’ second possession. On his second carry of the afternoon, he ran for 24 yards, a season-high.

In the first half, Greene ran for 49 yards on six carries. He picked up 63 more in the second half on 14 carries with Tomlinson sidelined by illness.

It was the first time this season in which Greene averaged more than 4.0 yards a carry.

“He ran hard,” guard Matt Slauson said. “He ran really hard.”

Tomlinson added, “He knew that he was going to be able to wear this team down and he did a great job.”

Greene, who gave a lot of credit to his offensive line, had a scary moment with 10:14 to go in the fourth quarter when on first-and-goal at the Chargers’ 9, he ran to the right and went down without being hit. The Jets called for the trainers, and the third-year back eventually was able to walk off the field.

“My foot just kind of got stuck in the turf and I sprained it a little bit,” said Greene, who later returned. “I just kind of tweaked it.”

Guard Brandon Moore wasn’t worried, saying, “When I saw him get up and walk or skip, whatever he did, it was fine.”
